Capital Data is Selected to Further Sun Microsystems' Presence in Midwest

Posted on: Wednesday, 3 December 2003, 06:00 CST

MILWAUKEE, Dec. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- Capital Data, Inc., a leading provider of business storage solutions and technology integration services, announced today that it has earned the distinction of Sun Microsystems iForce Partner. The Sun Enterprise certification, which is based on the successful completion of advanced training in Sun technology by sales and technical personnel, strengthens Capital Data's core competency in enterprise infrastructure solutions.

"As the storage expert in this region since 1989, we are delighted to have been selected by Sun to bring their server technology to this market," said Paul Eberle, president of Capital Data. "The addition of Sun expands our enterprise solutions offering and furthers our goal of becoming Wisconsin's major supplier of storage solutions."

With more and more companies focused on the realignment of their technology resources and the reorganization of their business, executives are often left with the arduous task of assessing their IT needs -- something which is often out of their area of expertise. Consequently, these companies fall victim to the increasing number of resellers overselling computer resources.

"In an effort to make a quick sale, many resellers don't take the time necessary to understand the client's environment," said Steve Goodman, manager of Customer Engineering & Technology Services for Capital Data. "The result is a combination of spiraling costs and applications that simply don't integrate well with the customer's business requirements. Our job is to guide businesses to make decisions that will keep expenses down and allow companies to focus on their core competencies."
